Interview with David Rosen

We kick off the 2012 primary interview season with David Rosen, who is running for the Harris County Department of Education, Position 3, At Large. Rosen has worked on numerous campaigns in recent years before making the switch from behind the scenes to center stage for this race. The winner of this primary gets the privilege of running against HCDE Trustee Michael Wolfe, who remains the biggest clown in county government, assuming Wolfe survives his own primary. Rosen is the son of two public school teachers and at age 27 would be the youngest Democrat elected countywide in 40 years if he wins. Here’s the interview:

You can find a list of all interviews for this cycle, plus other related information, on my 2012 Harris County Primary Elections page. As I did for the 2011 cycle, I am going to try to group candidates running for the same office together when I run these, but that’s more dependent on their responsiveness and their calendars than anything I can do.
